Nordic Pure 20x25x1PM10C-4 Pleated Carbon Filter Merv 10

Product Description

The NORDIC PURE 20x25x1PM10C-4 is a pleated plus carbon HVAC air filter rated MERV 10, sold in a 4-pack. It is designed for residential and light-commercial forced-air systems, including gas furnaces and central air conditioning units. The filter uses a dual-layer construction that fuses MERV-rated pleated media with an activated carbon layer, allowing it to capture airborne particulates while also adsorbing odorous gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The nominal size is 20x25x1 inches with an actual size of 19.5 x 24.5 x 0.75 inches. HVAC technicians, home-performance contractors, and informed DIYers typically handle installation.

This filter is suited for residential homes and small commercial spaces where both particulate filtration and odor control are priorities. It targets lint, household dust, pollen, smoke particles, dust mites, pet dander, virus carriers, mold spores, bacteria, and allergens. The MERV 10 rating makes it appropriate for households with pets, allergy sufferers, or occupants sensitive to airborne contaminants. The added carbon layer addresses cooking odors, smoke, and VOCs that a standard pleated filter would pass through. This filter is comparable to MPR 1000-rated filters from other manufacturers.

Key Features

• Dual-layer media fuses MERV 10 pleated material with activated carbon for combined particulate and odor control
• Activated carbon layer adsorbs VOCs, odorous gases, smoke, and chemical vapors
• Permanently electrostatically charged media acts as a magnet for airborne dust and particles
• Antimicrobial, hypoallergenic filter media inhibits growth of bacteria and mold within the filter
• Heavy-duty moisture-resistant beverage board frame with metal mesh support grid bonded to pleats
• Made in the USA; equivalent to MPR 1000 filter ratings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement filter for residential and light-commercial forced-air furnace and air conditioning systems using a 20x25x1 nominal filter slot. Actual installed dimensions are 19.5 x 24.5 x 0.75 inches; measure the existing filter slot before ordering to confirm fit.

Installation Notes

Turn off the furnace or air handler at the thermostat and system disconnect before replacing the filter. Note the airflow direction arrow printed on the filter frame and align it with the direction of airflow toward the blower. Filters in this size and MERV range should be inspected every 30 days and replaced every 30 to 90 days depending on household conditions such as pets, renovation activity, or high dust loads. Verify the actual slot dimensions match the 19.5 x 24.5 x 0.75 inch actual size before installation, as nominal and actual sizes differ.
